We'll finish our 366 project in several days! Are you happy about it? Or are you sad? Anyway, who not celebrate the fact that we're completing our missions! You can share two shots this time. *Please remember just two images!*
1) Your best or most favorite shot you took in the fourth quarter of 2012 (October- December). Add #Bestof4Q12Creative366 in the comment section after you post the image!
2) Your best or most favorite shot you took for the project this year. Add #BestofCreative366Project in the comment section after you post the image!
If you think those two tags are too complicated, forget them and just two of your images! But please add your comment in the comment section after you have posted them.
*And if you are the one who failed to complete the mission and are thinking you are going to do it again next year, you can add your fav one you took for the project here!*
One last thing: I have made this event "public." I might have missed inviting those who are participating this +Creative 366 Project, so if you know anyone who isn't here but is doing his/her project, please invite them!
366プロジェクトもあと数日で終わりです。うれしいですか。それとも、悲しい？ どちらにしても、長かったミッションの終わりを皆で祝いましょう！ 今回は写真を２枚シェアしてください。 *２枚だけです！*
１．10月～12月にプロジェクト用に撮った写真から、お気に入りの写真かベストの写真を１枚選んで投稿してください。 #Bestof4Q12Creative366 のタグを投稿後にコメント欄に入れてください。
２．プロジェクトのために撮った写真から、今年のベスト（もしくはお気に入り）！ の写真を１枚選んで投稿して下さい。 #BestofCreative366Project をタグとします。
タグが面倒なら、ただ２枚を選んで投稿してくださるだけで結構です。写真のコメント欄に、その写真の思い出などを書き添えていただけるとうれしいです。
そして、このプロジェクトに参加したのに途中で挫折した！来年こそは！という方も、ぜひこのイベントにご参加ください。挫折するまでに撮った写真をシェアしていただければ結構です。もちろん、来年への抱負も添えてくださいね！

Welcome to The Selfy Sunday Project for December 30/12.

Welcome to The Selfy Sunday Project for *December 2/12*
_PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS EVENT IS NOT FOR THIS SUNDAY, NOV. 25/12._
Theme: *Bond, James Bond!*
I want to see Selfy's that are inspired by *007* and the James Bond films. Lots exotic locations, action packed chases as well as numerous villains and sexy leading ladies to offer inspiration here. Or just stick to a more general "SPY" or cloak and dagger noire theme.
Either way it should be fun. _Props may come in handy here!_

As always I want to thank +LaDonna Pride for all of her hard work and she will be helping along the way as our co-host.

http://peaceoneday.org
"The International Day of Peace, a.k.a. "Peace Day" provides an opportunity for individuals, organizations and nations to create practical acts of peace on a shared date.
It was established by a United Nations resolution in 1981 to coincide with the opening of the General Assembly. The first Peace Day was celebrated in September 1982........
Anyone, anywhere can celebrate Peace Day. It can be as simple as lighting a candle at noon, or just sitting in silent meditation. Or it can involve getting your co-workers, organization, community or government engaged in a large event. The impact if millions of people in all parts of the world, coming together for one day of peace, is immense."

For some time now I have been doing a project, an experiment, an exploration, a study in light. My object has been the sky, through the limited vantage point of my kitchen window and my backyard. The result, so far, is this album called *Sky*: http://goo.gl/phGuR
Forget about that for right now. Show everyone your own sky! The best, the worst. I've seen people mention avoiding it because it means they have no "object" to shoot. Don't listen to those people. It is the most challenging palette of light there is. Let's see 'em!
You have a full day and a half! Please spread the word too.

Mobile PhotographersMobile Photography -- or as I call it #Mobilography -- is an artform that, happy to report, has flourished here on Google+. This circle of mobile photographers is not food and cats. It is art, it is creativity, it is beauty and content. Some of the individuals in this circle are film and DSLR photographers as well. The phone camera though is a regular and equally legitimate camera to use in their photography and documentation of their worlds.If you have been notified of this post, you are in the circle.Crowd SourcingI am taking suggestions for people to add to this circle for the future. If you are a mobile photographer, or know a mobile photographer, that isn't in this circle, please mention them here and include a link to a gallery of work.You are not required to share this circle to get into it. I can't stand that gimmick. Share it if you want people to know about our work.#MobilePhotography #Mobilography #Mobilographers #MobilePhotographers #CircleShare #SharedCircle ﻿

Hand Picked Photographers Circles - Nikon Camera D-F - 12 of 27Note: These circles are sorted by camera type and last name. They are split to not exceed 200 members. These circles are photographers that I admire. They have "more photos, less spam." There have been many additions and a few drops (mostly for spam or inactivity). Be sure to get all of the circles. Share! If you miss any of the circles they can be found at: +Gailen Mapes and scroll back to March 1st for the start of this set. (Previous complete set was published starting February 1st.) You can also use the #handpickedcircles hash tag and sort by "recent."I am hard up against the 5000 limit. From here on, I am going to have to become rather more strict about the "spam rules." Essentially if I have to go back more than a screen on your profile before I hit original material, there is a good chance that I may drop you from the circles. Of course there will be mitigating factors...Because of the way that Google no longer presents every person who adds me to their circles to me it is quite possible that I have missed some pretty good photographers. If I am following you, chances are that you are already in one of these circles or in my "check later" circle. If you think you have been missed, tag a comment on one of these posts and I will check your profile out for inclusion. Guidelines for inclusion can be found at: https://plus.google.com/u/0/103752943025677384806/about#circleshare #circlesharing #circleoftheday #sharedcircles #sharedcircle #sharedpubliccircles #fullcircleshare #addmetoyourcircles #bestsharedcircle #thebestcirclesongoogle #thebestcircle #handpickedcirclesNote: the hash tag #handpickedcircles should only be used to refer to these circles and other circles created by +Gailen Mapes .

Here's a dilemma. We took the kids to the art museum yesterday, and while enjoying ourselves with the art, this beautiful piece among the works exhibited, I noticed an old man photographing my son, six years old. He took two clicks with his DSLR.

Now I take a bit of street, and I've even taken pictures of others in this very museum. But I never take pictures of children. So I went to the guy and said please delete the pictures of my son. He said he wasn't taking pictures of my son but of the artwork my son was standing next to. He showed he deleted one, but I knew he had another.

He stated we had different views on taking images, which was obviously true. In hindsight, my children means my rules, whatever his views may be. So he ought to have respected that from the start. My son wanted to go so I left it there. Upon telling my... more »

So somebody (see the image) decided to follow my curated Mobilographers circle (this one: https://plus.google.com/+JacobDix/posts/HBdk8FdkehB) and then add a bunch of random profiles to it. He reposted it with my wording from the original post, notified everyone in the circle, including the new random profiles. Seeing the exact wording in his post at first made me think he had reshares mine. But no.

So this was somebody riding the Mobilography wave. He was likely hoping for a massive circle share to gain followers. Fortunately no one shared that circle. It occurred to me that there is no way to prevent that kind of thing. It puts one more problem into this Google+ system.

Congratulations to all winners of the fourth quarter! I received two honorable mentions, and didn't place as well as I had hoped. The final winner will be announced next week. +Stefanie Le Pape​ congratulations to you on your HMs!

I use my phone constantly, because it is my camera of choice. And maybe I'm a little addicted to using it, too often, etc. But one place I never, ever, ever use it is while driving.

I can't stand that people even TOUCH their phones while driving, so..... sharing it here. Thanks for posting this obvious but important message +Kimberly Chapman

TURN OFF YOUR GOD-DAMNED PHONES WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING

That includes headsets, hands-free, whatever. Do not smugly assume you can keep using a phone because you do it hands-free. TURN OFF YOUR PHONES AND PAY ATTENTION TO THE ROAD, because otherwise this sort of nonsense happens:

You are NOT better than everyone else. Your conversations are NOT MORE IMPORTANT THAN SOMEONE ELSE'S SAFETY. You are NOT a better driver. You CANNOT "handle it just fine". It's NOT "okay this one time". It's NOT "only for a second".

If you are engaging with your phone in any way, you are AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. Yes, some activities are worse than others (like this moron who was videotaping her kid in the back), but they are all increasing your risk of an accident.

Smarten up, especially those of you with kids. Does it terrify you that they'll one day be texting and driving? Then model better behaviour FFS! Are you sick of your teens being addicted to their phones? Then show that you're able to put yours down when required!

I am closing comments because I do not want to hear a bunch of entitled people explain why it's so important for them to put other people's lives at risk. Peo and I were in a Civic crushed between two SUVs because of someone who was on her phone. I have separately been rear-ended by someone on a phone. I don't want to hear why you're so much better than those people who thought they were driving safely as well.

If my father-in-law could pull over to take calls when he was an on-call pediatric hematologist working with very sick children, you can pull over to take your calls too.﻿___Turn Off Your Phones While Driving!

My friend Per and I finally made an appointment in February to head down to this spot to do some urbex. The wives consented. We drove down to the lake, parked the car by the outlet stores and factory buildings in the area. The walk in the snow was easy enough, and there was an old access road to the location. Footprints in the recent snow told that others had been there of late.

This is to date my largest series of images, encompassing 125 images, using VSCOcam presets.

Urbex

Each time I saw this building, some new story would come to mind on what it was and what it used to be. I had read of the military drills of World War II down by this lake, and so, invented fables connecting the abandoned building with WWII, the former military airport in the area, and the abandoned warehouses in the woods I formerly shot. These were mere inventions however, though they certainly added to my thinking about the place.

Here's a dilemma. We took the kids to the art museum yesterday, and while enjoying ourselves with the art, this beautiful piece among the works exhibited, I noticed an old man photographing my son, six years old. He took two clicks with his DSLR.

Now I take a bit of street, and I've even taken pictures of others in this very museum. But I never take pictures of children. So I went to the guy and said please delete the pictures of my son. He said he wasn't taking pictures of my son but of the artwork my son was standing next to. He showed he deleted one, but I knew he had another.

He stated we had different views on taking images, which was obviously true. In hindsight, my children means my rules, whatever his views may be. So he ought to have respected that from the start. My son wanted to go so I left it there. Upon telling my... more »

Photographing Children

Here's a dilemma. We took the kids to the art museum yesterday, and while enjoying ourselves with the art, this beautiful piece among the works exhibited, I noticed an old man photographing my son, six years old. He took two clicks with his DSLR.

Now I take a bit of street, and I've even taken pictures of others in this very museum. But I never take pictures of children. So I went to the guy and said please delete the pictures of my son. He said he wasn't taking pictures of my son but of the artwork my son was standing next to. He showed he deleted one, but I knew he had another.

He stated we had different views on taking images, which was obviously true. In hindsight, my children means my rules, whatever his views may be. So he ought to have respected that from the start. My son wanted to go so I left it there. Upon telling my wife of the situation, she mentioned the same guy had taken pictures (or at least one picture) of my daughter, age 3, while they were in another part of the museum.

It felt infuriating. So my thinking has been like this: if taking pictures of children, shouldn't you ask the parents for consent? If so, he probably wouldn't have. And who would say yes? But that calls two things to mind. One is his motives, for not asking, for being dishonest about it, etc. The other is my own motives when I shoot street. Photographing children crossed over into some parental zone. Yet I too wouldn't go around asking people if they could be part of my street work either. It wouldn't work. And again, even with adults, who would say yes? And having done so, who would act natural?

Well, at least I wouldn't be dishonest about it, and I'd delete all that they asked me to, related to them.

So what do you say of this?

As for the image here, I didn't catch the name of the artist (will look it up later), though she made a remarkable work! The museum lighting was perfect. This image is #SOOC and #Mobilography.

The family had an outing today to Liljevalchs art gallery in Stockholm. To pass the time on the train, my son and daughter took turns at my phone using some of my images in the app Repix. You can find the Android version here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.repix.android

This is one of my son's first attempts at #Mobilography. ﻿

So +Charles Strebor​ made a series of white squares with a friend. I found these to be a great series and so, made a series of nine white squares myself. Charles in turn made those into one of his worlds, the 8th in his second series of such. Then he made a negative of that. Since then, on our own and without consulting the other, we have both been glitching these images. This is one of those #glitch images, using #Decim8. This was derived from the negative or black world. You can read about Charles' worlds here:

+David Kutcher​ writes a great post on the value of a slow site. It reconfirmed for me something I already intuitively knew and put into practice in my own website www.mobilography.net. No bells and whistles. Content. Some of the self imposed rules I have for my site are:

Always paginate copy. Both the left AND right margins are straight. +David Kutcher​'s own article is not paginated on the right margin, which makes it hard for me to read. Both left and right pagination also makes for a beautiful read.

Images last I want people to know about a series of images and my thoughts about them as much as I want them to view the images. I put an image from a series here or there in a post sometimes, but copy goes first.

Links always open in new windows This is sort of obvious. But needs saying. I want to add c... more »

A Slow User Experience and why you should embrace it within your websites and content marketing

"A visitor's attention span is only 15 seconds", "we've got to capture the reader", "we've got to keep them moving along in the direction we want them to go", "we've got to give them options" ...

How often do you hear those statements when discussing web pages, web design and online marketing?

We've lost our rhythm and are giving short-shrift to the User's Reading Experience. And if you're curious what a Slow User Experience is, please read on :)

And I do hope you take the time to read, digest and enjoy. And my hope is that it inspires an action from you at the end.

A thank you to those who gave me early reads and valuable feedback: +Gina Fiedel, +Stephan Hovnanian, and +Vincent Messina

As well as a thank you to those whose content, ideas and discussions germinated in my brain: +David Amerland, +Teodora Petkova, and +Gideon Rosenblatt

Links always open in new windows This is sort of obvious. But needs saying. I want to add context to what I write, but if course I want people to be able to continue reading.

No pop ups I have had this pop up sign up window that, while it has increased my mailing list, has always felt annoying. I decided no more obstruction of content, today in fact, and so, removed it. It was that decision today, plus seeing this very good blog post that causes me to write. To add value.

Minimal Theme I was very careful when I picked my theme. It's lovely minimalism. It provides two related posts at the end of each post. It has a beautiful slider (yes they can be good) which highlights what can be found further down the page.

Ok, my call to action. Go have a look at www.mobilography.net. I put good work into it so that people will enjoy what they find there.

Thanks +David Kutcher​ for confirming for me that my minimalist approach is the way I should keep going.

The pets come from the fact that my Samsung Galaxy S5 gallery classifieds this image as, well... pets. Anyway, part of my #urbex #UrbanExploration series I'm fiddling around with in post processing. Mostly processing in my head, as I really am uncertain as of yet where to take this set of 125 images.

This image is originally by +Charles Strebor​. I modified it, bending it into a circle, cropping it into a square, and layering an iPhone image on top of his iPhone image, though using my android phone.
